Riding Day 14 Today was the best day of riding so far, and we covered 112.57 miles from El Paso to Van Horn, TX, which ain’t too shabby for two geriatric bicycle riders! The winds picked up as predicted in the early afternoon, and Odie and I simply put our heads down and cranked out the miles in a glorious blur of speed and focus. We kept the RPMs elevated, which is the secret to going fast, and I kept looking down at our shadow flying alongside us, amazed at how easy it felt. Days like this on a bike are rare, but we’ve already experienced two of them in the last week.
I love the roach coach sharing. On a ride like that it must be so uplifting to those who have planned to be on their own. What a pleasant surprise of treats and camaraderie for them! Hope there will be a fantastic celebration at the end with your new friends!❣️
What a great history’s story, if possible, try to get into Martha a little later in the evening time there’s mysterious lights out on the planes. The locals will tell you about it.
We look forward to living vicariously through you guys journey every morning as we read your updates. Loved how you are able to meet up with the other riders from time to time…and have short visits.. Tell The Bob we chatted with Susie from the deck yesterday. Charlie and Bernice🙏
